'Biggest and Best' of the Feds On Heels of Success, Tech Transfer Community Thinks Ahead By Carla Garnett
By MaryJo Hoeksema
The "reinventing government" movement is alive and prospering at NIH. Proof of
its vitality was evident at a recent meeting of the extramural program management
committee (EPMC), where Dr. Wendy Baldwin, NIH deputy director for
extramural research, and Geoffrey Grant, director, Office of Policy for Extramural
Research Administration, unveiled the NIH extramural reinvention priorities for
fiscal year 1998. The presentation highlighted initiatives that the Office of
Extramural Research, in partnership with other institutes and centers, has selected
this year for development, testing and, in some cases, execution. The goal of each
initiative is to reduce administrative burdens, enhance NIH interactions with the
research community, and facilitate science. |
